• Show HN: MonsterWriter – Write a thesis, post, or organize notes

  This is interesting. Reminds me of Kinopio, which I kinda liked but looked too casual and not serious (in my own point-of-view). https://kinopio.club/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• The internet has become soulless and I hate it

  Just have a look at Mmm [1] or Kinopio [2] to brighten up your mood. Gopher and FTP servers were fairly soulless as well, so I guess this is just a bit of a nostalgic perspective issue. Just ignore the large websites, as you would ignore tabloids or commercial television. It is actually quite easy to learn that if something is massively popular, it will probably be so because of competitive marketing tricks, and... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Ask HN: I'm looking for a website posted here a year or two ago

  Perhaps you're looking for Kinopio.club? https://kinopio.club. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• An Internet Canvas

  Not the OP, but I found out about mmm.page through Kinopio: https://kinopio.club/ Both make me happy about the next evolutionary steps in the world wide web :). - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Use Midnight Commander like a pro (2015)

  Shameless plug for my more modern alternative to Midnight Commander, https://fman.io. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Best symbols in folder names to pin an important folder up top?

  Use a file browser that supports jumping to a folder by frecency (examples: z (shell extension) or my-dired-recent-dirs() in my dired or https://fman.io/ for users that prefer graphical UIs). You will find out that you will prefer jumping to navigation when you're familiar with the concept. Source: about 2 years ago

• Ask HN: Why aren't there any real alternatives to Electron?

  There are great alternatives. I used Python and Qt to create my file manager [1]. It's a tool that needs to start quickly so Electron was not an option [2]. I open sourced my build system for creating cross-platform desktop apps with it in minutes at https://build-system.fman.io/. 1: https://fman.io 2: https://fman.io/blog/picking-technologies-for-a-desktop-app-in-2016/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Explorer: Move selected files into a new folder (like on MacOS)

  And for the record, I think over the years I learned to like Finder... I guess I like the sheer simplicity (I use fman) and started to love it back in OS 9 and those lovable purple hues :P. Source: about 2 years ago

• Non-Commercial Licenses Are Non-Free Licenses

  Fman by Matthew Herrmann https://fman.io From what I've gathered, success has been mixed. Duplicacy seems to be doing well based on forum activity and release history. Fman never made much money. If I recall correctly the Fman author was turned off by the number of people who criticized it for being fully open-source and wished he'd stuck with a closed-source full commercial model. I'd like for the open-source... - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago
